Hi guys, it's nice to finally join this wonderful forum.
I'm a cs graduate from johns hopkins and am thinking of making a shift in career into Web
Designing. I have some experience back in college in regards to coding, so i think the aspect of
web designing wouldn't be too alien to me.
HTML and CSS are pretty much the most important things i need to know and master first right?
HTML is a given, but what are some other things that are a must know? A friend of mine mentioned
a few things to me such as CSS, adobe flex, .NET, Csharp, expression blend, flash/silverlight....
From your experience... what would be your personal approach to learning web desgining? HTML
first of course, then CSS? and what next?
Reason i'm asking this is that i know absolutely nothing about any of these products/technology
other than html, and i would appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction and
maybe share some of their experience.
In addition, what are some software you guys would recommend for a web designer? what's a very
good html editor, what are the nice tools that i need to acquire.
Finally, does anyone know of any good sites for learning the stuff i need for becoming a good web
designer? sites that have tutorials and guides on html, css, or anything that might be helpful
for a guy who is just getting his feet wet?
thanks in advance.
